Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School and Veteran's Affairs Healthcare System, Boston, Massachusetts.
Objective: Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are at increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) including heart failure (HF). However, little is known regarding the relative risks of HF subtypes such as HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) or reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) in RA compared with non-RA.
Methods: We identified patients with RA and matched non-RA comparators among participants consenting to broad research from two large academic centers.
